Halo-lit letters are solid-faced fabricated letters with LEDs inside that shine backwards onto the wall, so each letter stands in silhouette against a soft outline of light.
Practical reasons to consider halo-lit letters in Hucknall
- Older streets in Hucknall may sit within a conservation area, so we check the council's likely view before design starts.
- Where a Hucknall building has pale stone or smooth render, halo lighting shows off the wall rather than hiding it.
- Clinics, salons and studios in Hucknall wanting an understated frontage can still be seen after dark with halo letters.

Consent for illuminated signs in Hucknall
Illuminated signs are treated more strictly than unlit ones in England. Deemed consent for illumination is limited, and it does not apply at all in conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes, the Broads or areas of special control, so most internally lit or halo-lit fascia and projecting signs need express consent from the council. Decisions usually take up to 8 weeks and consent is normally granted for 5 years. Councils commonly assess brightness against the Institution of Lighting Professionals' guidance PLG05, and lighting should be static. An electrician makes the final mains connection to BS 7671. We can prepare the drawings and photos for your application, or submit it for you.
